An adult king snake can grow up to a length of seven to eight feet. A scarlet king snake is the only exception in this species. It is only a couple of feet long after complete maturation making it one of the shortest of its kind. King snakes have a very long life span of up to twenty years. The female lays four to twenty eggs on loose soil, logs or even rodent burrows. The young ones hatch seven to twelve weeks later, and are roughly eight to thirteen inches in length. They reach complete sexual maturation at the age of three to four years.
Kingsnakes are not poisonous and they grow to an average of 4 feet long. The snake hunts small animals and when it locates its prey, it uses its strong body to wrap around it and suffocate it before consuming it. The snake breeds in early to late spring and gives birth to four to 20 eggs at one time.
